The proposed bill would amend current statutes by changing the chapter heading of title 44, chapter 38 of the Arizona Revised Statutes from "BUSINESSES EXEMPT FROM MASK MANDATE" to "BUSINESSES GENERALLY." This update reflects a broader focus on business regulations rather than solely on mask mandates.
Additionally, the bill introduces new provisions that require restaurants and other food service establishments to serve water only upon customer request, and mandates that operators of hotels and motels provide customers with the option to decline daily laundering of towels and linens, along with a requirement to prominently display a notice regarding this option. These insertions aim to enhance customer choice and promote responsible resource use in the hospitality sector.
